Nikon ML-L3 Wireless Remote Control for Nikon D40, D40x, D60 & D80 Digital SLR Cameras

The ML-L3 remote is a very useful tool for photography.
- Allowing shutter activation without shaking the camera
- Allows the photographer to be in the photo
- Flexibility when coupled with the timed shutter release
- A must-have for self-portrait photographers
- Allows you to step away from the camera and adjust the scene more quickly in studio work

Cons;
- It appears that the IR sensor for the D60 is on the front of the hand grip

Although the location of the sensor is in front of the camera, the remote can be used at angles to the camera and from behind when adequate surfaces exist around the camera to bounce the signal to the sensor.

Very happy with my purchase. This remote brings creative photography to a new level.

This is a must have item for many of todays new cameras.

Do yourself a favor though...buy two!

It works great if you've got you're camera set up on a Grizzly and you've shot and shot at him feeding on berries and your waiting for him to raise his head and look knarly at you. Then you can be all comfortable setting ready to press the button.

It is also good if your shooting Half Dome in Yosemite and your waiting for the clouds to clear just right. If you find yourself in a meadow doing just that, look around your feet, you may find my old ML-3. I think that is the last place I lost it. It is one hard item to keep track of.

I'm back here for more!

I think the remote is a great idea, especially for the product shoots I have to do. I thought I was getting a good deal by combining with some other purchases to get free freight, However, once I received the item, I discovered that it didn't work, due to a DEAD battery. So I have to go out and pay another $2.50 to replace it, so maybe I didn't get such a great deal after all. Amazon must either have a large, old inventory or they're not selling very quickly.

i have no issues with my ML-L3 remote control, the wireless remote works geat with my nikon D80. just point and click and the camera timer will start... very easy to use, and for only $14.25 after shipping, you can't really go wrong.

When I take upclose pictures of hummingbirds and butterflies, I can stand away from the camera and still get the shot
